"Old and New." Painting, graphics, sculpture, ceramics, textiles

The project was implemented using a grant of the President of the Russian Federation for the development of civil society provided by the Presidential Grants Fund

The project "Old and New" was invented in the "Studio No. 6" of the medical rehabilitation department at the City Psychiatric Hospital No. 6. Like the first project in this series - “About Antiquity”, held in the Borey Gallery with the support of the Committee on Culture of St. Petersburg in 2015, it is about the history of art.

The exhibits of the project “Old and New” are interpretations of biblical stories, with a special, strictly personal perception of each artist, demonstrating a free, sincere, non-canonical, artistic vision of the Old and New Testaments.

The exhibition will feature the work of rehabilitants aged 18 to 90, residents of St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region. The project will host a master class with the participation of professional artists of St. Petersburg.

<… Creativity, as a powerful creative process, allows rehabilitants to satisfy the needs for recognition and self-realization, and the demonstration of their work at the exhibition makes it possible to feel involvement in art. It is important to note that the creativity of patients pleases and inspires not only themselves, but also those who visit the exhibition, it will do better, kinder…>
